Boasting a spectacular Park Street location across from the Boston Common and the gold-domed Massachusetts State House, No. 9 Park is chef-owner Barbara Lynch’s Beacon Hill dream come true.

Offering a menu of European classic country fare that spotlights the cuisines of France and Italy, Lynch has created a casually elegant bistro atmosphere.

The 1940s décor, fabric-covered walls, hand-beaded sconces and mahogany wainscoting have all contributed to the instant success of No. 9 Park, bringing the restaurant and its chef-owner an avalanche of critical acclaim and a devoted clientele.
